1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a common malignancy with high mortality. Despite advancements in understanding its molecular causes and improved drug therapies, patient survival rates remain low. The main reasons for the high mortality rate are cancer metastasis and the emergence of drug-resistant cancer cell populations. While genetic changes are recognized as the main driver of CRC occurrence and progression, recent studies suggest that epigenetic regulation is a crucial marker in cancer, influencing the interplay between genetics and the environment. Research has shown the significant regulatory roles of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs) in CRC development. This review explores epigenetically regulated ncRNAs and their functions, aiming to understand key regulatory mechanisms that impact CRC development. Additionally, it discusses the potential use of these ncRNAs in CRC diagnosis, prognosis, and targeted treatments.
